I once told a teacher
"I hate therapy, I don't want to talk about it"
and he responded
"Who do you open up to"
I thought and considered
Every person who left me
Nobody knows the full story
Nobody knows that i tried to ** myself
Or that even though I said I stopped I still SH
What do I do?
As I drown under water a cry for help the people around me keep swimming
And when they get tired I whisper advice on how to swim
I can't seem to do it myself.
And in the night time while they live it up
I stay under water with nobody to save me.

If God is up there
I wonder what he thinks
I wonder why he messed up my face
And made my mother cry
And why he sent that evil boy to my house
And why he took my grandfather
Despite everything
I wonder why he filled my heart with so much love
And why he made the boy I love so much the boy I cannot be with

When I hear that my friends put lines on their wrists
And draw their struggles in blood
I get mad
The same lines cover my body
My skin is marked by my past
And cannot be erased
Am I jealous?
Or am I angry to watch someone else take the same path I did?

I was ***** at 7 years old
He was 10
Because of him I stayed quiet
He told me to stay quiet
Because of him I do not sleep through the night
I have to retell what happened because he is still in my school district
I am scared when he is around
Because of him I learned to carve my emotions into my skin
Because of him I am so, so angry.

I still have scars on my thigh
I put them there by myself, why do I care?
And when a little girl asked "what's on your leg"
I responded with "I was in a fight with a bear"
And with every child I feed the same lie.
I hope they will never awake to find
That the bear that attacked my leg
Was my very own mind.
